I use Retro Music. What advantages would Symphony have?

You can turn off the shutter sound just fine. This can even be done on Japanese Pixels.

What are in your opinion "essential" android apps that aren't as popular/talked about? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

I'm not sure if they're popular or not but I didn't see them mentioned in this thread and I rely on these fantastic open source apps daily:

  1. AntennaPod -- podcast app
  2. Orgzly -- Todo lists / reminders / notes via org files. Can be synced via syncthing.
  3. Aves -- gallery app
  4. KeePassDX -- keepass client
  5. Prognoza -- weather app
  6. Olauncher -- minimalist launcher

Honourable mention: Harmonic -- hacker News app. Not "essential" by any means but it's quite good.

Edit: added prognoza and olauncher

In addition to GPay contactless, Android Auto will also not work on GrapheneOS.

Is Brave Browser currently as privacy disrespecting as some say? in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

This may not be helpful, but if you're willing to flash GrapheneOS on a pixel, Vanadium is wonderful.
